Care Philosophy

I believe in empowering the patients with information, and to incorporate them with their healthcare, so they can get a great care that aligns best of their goals and values. I believe in doing my best to help the patients deal with their illnesses and provide what is medically necessary to get the best outcome. I believe in treating every patient the way they would like to be treated. I believe that people are different, and doctors should respect that while approaching patients, having to deal with people of different background, culture, ethnicity, and religions is a pleasure of mine, we never should think of that as a burden, but rather as a sign of strength of our society.
